Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Chapter 673: 673
 

May They Never Meet Again

Broken Islands.

When the joint fleet from the distant port once again sailed through the commercial hub of the west coast, the crew could not help but sigh and feel that the world was unpredictable.

Even the knowledgeable elves couldn’t help but sigh. They even became poetic and wrote a short poem on the spot.

A few days ago, they had been to this area. At that time, they were part of Kant’s military force, and they had been there to deter and evacuate the citizens of the Broken Islands.

They had witnessed with their own eyes the political wisdom and military methods of His Highness Kant. He had frightened the prosperous commercial activities of the Broken Islands to the point of almost stopping by simply evacuating the citizens. However, what happened next was beyond everyone’s expectations-the brutal sea monsters and the collapse of the Broken Islands.

And the great evacuation that shook their hearts and souls.

The firepower network that interweaved above the island, the boundless explosion flames, the hot air balloons that shuttled through the sky formed the transportation line of life, and the giant aircraft that rushed into the sky to transport the lives that were eager to be saved back to the distant port… Many members of this fleet had personally experienced and participated in it.

They were proud of it.

Even the proudest elves had to admit that His Highness Kant was a unique leader. He was powerful but benevolent, cruel but fair, wise but tolerant. His strength and benevolence that made people respect and worship him had built the miracle that happened in the Broken Islands.

Tens of thousands of innocent lives had been saved in a single day across thousands of miles. This involved the use of a large number of cutting-edge magic devices, the high-speed deployment of troops, the mobilization of massive resources, and the cooperation of an entire city. Mortals would cheer for this great rescue, but wise people would tremble in fear.

However, when these wise men decided to pledge their loyalty to His Highness Kant, their fear would immediately turn into extreme excitement. That was the mood of the navy of this fleet.

They were already serving, working, and fighting for His Highness Kant.

He would use the most advanced alchemical weapons and magical devices, fight under the command of a great commander like Horus, enjoy the most delicious and abundant food in the world, and no matter where he was, no matter what kind of danger he was in, he would not be too disheartened and despaired because His Highness Kant would definitely come to save him.

All of this wasn’t a boast, but something they had experienced, witnessed, and experienced.

They were deeply honored by what had happened and experienced on the Broken Islands.

But this glory was not without flaws.

That was because after rescuing all the people who had been stranded, His Highness Kant had fought against the peerless beast that was as huge as a mountain by himself. At that time, they had stayed in the distant harbor, waiting in a daze. It was only when the news of victory came that they understood what had happened. The people were rejoicing, but they only felt ashamed and humiliated.

Today, they finally realized what had happened.

The night before, there had been a meteor shower falling from the sky. The night sky had been red and the aurora had been shining. That must have been the scene of His Highness Kant casting a forbidden spell to annihilate a powerful enemy. Today, they had witnessed the scene.

“Have you searched?”

Quillion deactivated the Eagle Eye spell and looked at the few people who boarded the ship.

Han Guangcheng nodded and said,”I’ve searched…” No survivors have been found.”

The fleet was sent to the Broken Seas under Kant’s orders to search, block, and defend. Quillion was the commander, and Han Guangcheng was the deputy to coordinate the operation of the elven ships and the distant port ships. Messi Zhu and Elric, the defectors from the Broken Islands, were also there as guides.

They were in charge of things like ”

The shock on Mei Xizhu’s face had yet to completely disappear. He had worked in the Broken Islands for many years, and now, he had personally witnessed the destruction of prosperity and the desolation of the wasteland. Moreover, it had happened in just a few days…No matter how thick his nerves were, he could not pretend that nothing had happened.

He said,” There are fires everywhere on the island. They should have been ignited by the meteor fire that fell from the sky. All kinds of strange fragments flew everywhere, and many buildings collapsed. By the way, there are also dead sea monsters. Corpses are everywhere… Sir, many strange and novel things have appeared on the island.”

“I see it,” said Quillon softly as he looked past them at the surface of the sea.

More than ten nautical miles away, a few boulders that were glowing with a weird red light were floating in the air, dozens of meters above the sea. Each of them was the size of a medium-sized warship, circling and entangling with each other.

Floating rocks like this could be found in many places on the sea and on the island.

The golden crystals were stuck to each other and bloomed like crystal flowers. Some floated in the sea, some bloomed on the cliffs, and there were even many crystal flowers that fell from the sky like snowflakes.

The green gel substance kept gathering, or floating on the surface of the sea like a cluster of algae, or gathering on the land like a small lake.

The rainbow-colored fragments, big and small, were scattered all over the islands. Many of them had sunk into the sea, and many of them maintained their original form in the flames of the land. All kinds of fragments of unknown use and origin had attracted the fire and were sleeping quietly in this dead and broken land.

What were these things?

This was a common problem for every member of the fleet.

” I suggest that we prepare to use the Falling Rain Tactic to extinguish the fire on the island,” Mei Xizhu continued.” Then, we will report what happened here to His Highness Kant.”

“I’ve already done it.”

” Keep your eyes peeled,” Quillion said calmly.” Our mission is still to lock down the area. Order all members of the fleet not to come into contact with these unknown substances. Everything in this sea belongs to His Highness Kant. This is His Highness ‘spoils of war. It is not our mission to find out what these things are and what they can be used for.”

He turned around and looked at the captains and chief mages who had been summoned.

” Since you’ve made up your minds, we’re now serving both His Highness Kant and Her Majesty the Queen. His Highness Kant has made it clear that all research work will be carried out together with Sunset Moon and Dragon Island, and the results and gains will be shared. So, there’s no need for you to worry, and don’t do anything that you shouldn’t in the name of loyalty and patriotism. Fishing and hiding without permission will be punished as treason, and will be punished by both the laws of the distant port and the laws of the elves. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

Quillion nodded.” Remember, our mission is to block and guard. All ships and individuals who trespass will be expelled immediately. Our patience and warning will only be given once. If the other party is perfunctory or cunning, sink and kill them immediately. Don’t leave a single one alive!”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

The order was given, and the various ships spread out to various parts of the Broken Archipelago to patrol and investigate. They communicated with each other using the communication device that His Highness Kant had given them, and they paid close attention to any unusual movements.

Dragons were cruising in the sky, and hot-air balloon troops were taking off one after another. The high-altitude observers had a special mission-to observe the terrain of the islands in the sea after they were destroyed by the meteor shower. They were to mark out the large flat land for various matters. His Highness Kant was going to open up a new airport here and send combat personnel there.

The flagship was patrolling and there was nothing to say for the time being. On the deck, Quillion and the others were chatting. Although the elves were arrogant, they knew some official formalities. Moreover, Han Guangcheng and Mei Xizhu were both from Aurora. Just because they were from the same hometown as Prince Kant, the new member Quillion did not mind exchanging a few words with them.

“Speaking of which…”

Han Guangcheng pointed to the sky mysteriously. A golden dragon was flying across the sky and into the distance.” This guy told me that something big happened in Far Harbor yesterday.”

Everyone looked at him curiously.

Han Guangcheng’s father, Han Zezheng, was already the financial officer of Distant Port. He was more or less a second-generation heir. At least, compared to everyone present, his relationship with His Highness Kant was relatively closer.

The young man from Aurora looked around and said in a low voice,” I heard. It’s just a rumor. I heard that Muyue sent dowry to Distant Harbor yesterday.”

Everyone was shocked.” What?” asked Quillon in surprise.

” That’s impossible,” the elven commander said.” That’s impossible.”

” The dragon said that they arrived yesterday afternoon. The elven merchant ships came one after another. The elven mages on the ships were shouting with spells, and everyone in the dock area heard it. It’s strange, these elves started shouting and cursing at each other…”

“Wow!” everyone exclaimed.

Han Guangcheng looked excited.” There’s something even more exciting. I heard the dragon say that Princess Tina is in Faraway Harbor now!”

“Wow!”

“This is bad, this is bad!” Everyone exclaimed in unison.

Even though he said that, everyone present was beaming with joy.

The Dragon of Aurora would also have a fire in its residence!

They revered Kant as a god, revered his power and majesty, and revered his kindness and justice. When they heard that His Highness’s backyard was on fire, they felt a sense of closeness, as if an illusory and perfect image had become real. Such things had always been a source of joy for men.

Strangely, no one was worried about this.

This ship was filled with elves. They were all eager for His Highness Kant to kick Princess Tina aside and marry into the Sunset Moon royal family. The human officers present were either the surrendered generals of the Broken Islands or Kant’s direct subordinates from the distant port. For example, Han Guangcheng was from the Aurora Empire and Kant’s natural vassal. It had nothing to do with him who His Highness Kant married. As for the surrendered generals of the Broken Islands, it did not matter to him.

They discussed excitedly what would happen.

” Your Highness Kant loves Princess Tina, right?”

” Yes, it should be. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been involved in the war for Goethe.”

“What about the Elven Empress?”

” I heard that the Elven Empress fell in love with His Highness Kant…”

” Hey, the two of you, don’t criticize our perfect queen in front of me. In my opinion, Prince Kant was merely deceived by Princess Tina. Later on, he realized that the one he truly loved was the queen…”

The fans of the couple began to quarrel.

They argued, discussed, and fantasized. No one could convince the other, but they eventually reached a consensus on certain matters. For example, it must have been very difficult for His Highness Kant last night.

” Sigh, even the Skyquaking Dragon has such troubles.”

The boatswain brought over some fine elven wine. They enjoyed the sea breeze and gazed at the unique and gorgeous scenery of the Broken Islands. They discussed the gossip about Prince Kant and finally smiled at each other and raised their glasses to celebrate.

“To our wives,” said Quillon.

“To our lover,” Han Guangcheng smiled knowingly and raised his glass.

Alec, Messi Bamboo, and the elf officers raised their glasses together, and the sparkling wine reverberated under the sunlight.

“May they never meet again!” they said in unison.

Far Harbor.

“You traitor…”

City Hall.

“Ungrateful thing…”

In the mayor’s office.

“Who pulled you out of the quagmire…”

In front of Hong San.

“Have you forgotten all about Valentan’s kindness?”

Kant glared at his retainer.” Do you know how scared I was last night?”

“Your Highness, that was your family banquet yesterday. How could I join in?”Hong San smiled bitterly. Moreover, Princess Tina is about to take over the Ministry of Unity, and Miss Leona is also consolidating the Siegel Company. As the mayor, I still have to deal with them in the future, so I don’t dare to be an eyesore yesterday…”

” You can’t just leave me in the lurch!” His Highness Kant slammed the table.” You can’t just leave me in the lurch!”

After he finished shouting, he complained,” F * ck you. Ah Xing glared at Tina first, Leona glared at me, and Lily also glared at me. Then, they stared at each other. When we were eating, my mouth was almost crooked from laughing. I laughed awkwardly. I told more than 50 jokes. Tina and Leona sat on one side, Ah Xing and Lily sat on the other side, and Tina picked up food for me. Then, they all got excited. If Ah Fu didn’t smooth things over, I would have died there…”

” Just like you, Sylmeria is not loyal. After sending Tina off, she ran back to Lucerne without even having dinner…”

The Aurora Dragon covered its face with one hand.” Also, f * ck you. What’s wrong with the elves? They came all the way here to wish me and Derila a happy marriage for a thousand years…” It’s a gift that Tina personally signed for. She smiled as she signed…”

He slammed his head against the table.” I f * cking thought she was going to chop me with an ax…”

“Did she chop it?”Hong San shook his head.

“No, I didn’t.”

“Are the ladies angry with you?”

“.. There isn’t.”

“Then why are you so excited?”

Kant sighed.” That’s the worst part. They didn’t get angry, cry, or yell at me. They just looked at me calmly. I just wanted to find a hole to hide in…”

” Yes.” Hong San nodded.” Your Highness’s moral values are higher than ordinary people. You have to get used to it.”

” Habit my ass!” Kant glared.

“.. So Your Highness is only marrying one?” Hong San asked,” Who is that? Princess Tina? What about Miss Gorilla?

Where was Queen Derila? Also…”

” The Star Palace isn’t destroyed yet,” Kant shouted.” What home can it be?!”

Hong San nodded.” Understood. Your Highness enjoys spending time with every beautiful woman and having wonderful memories. Deep in your heart, you want to be intimate with them forever. However, due to some inexplicable guilt and moral values, you don’t dare to voice your desires out loud…”

“Hey! I’m not here for psychological therapy!”

Hong San said calmly,” Although that’s the case, Your Highness, you must know this in your heart. Since ancient times, marriage has always been the most effective way to sign contracts and form alliances. It’s a custom that is common in the world. Master also intends to facilitate your marriage with the Empress of Aurora…”

“Again?” Kant asked, his face contorted.

“What else?” Hong San asked indifferently. His Highness is going to save Aurora and bring the army to wipe out the evil. What should we do next? How should you integrate the power of Aurora? How could he make the emperor and ministers of Aurora feel at ease? How can we make them believe that you won’t take advantage of the situation to destroy them and seize the divine weapon of the country?

How can we keep them confident and calm for the next few years or even decades?”

He raised a finger.” Marriage. Only marriage. If you marry the Empress of Aurora, you will naturally have all the laws, principles, and rights of Aurora. You can smoothly integrate the national strength of Aurora, and the government and the people will cooperate with you without any doubt. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

Kant said calmly,” I get it. What you mean is that in order to save the world, to maintain world peace, and to ensure the happiness of all the people in the world, I have no choice but to offer my pure body to a rich woman who holds a high position and authority whom I have never met before. If I think about it that way, the moral pressure on me will be much less.”

“..”

“It’s good that you think that way.” Hong San’s eyes twitched.

Kant’s face fell.” Good my ass. I…”

Horus’s voice rang out in Kant’s ears.” Father, the Broken Isles have sent word that the fleet has arrived. They have discovered a large amount of falling matter and are preparing to summon rain to extinguish the fire. I think we should go and take a look, collect samples, and gather researchers.”

Kant thought for a moment and stood up.

“Your Highness is leaving?”Hong San stood up.

” We found something on the Broken Islands. We’re preparing to station people there and set up mines.” Kant sighed at this point.” Sigh, let’s go back to Tidal Manor and say hello first…”

“Take care, Your Highness.”

Kant pursed his lips. He opened the Realm Gate and returned to the White Fog World.

“Father, I’ve been organizing the army for the past two days. I have an idea,”Horus said.

Kant stopped in his tracks.

” It’s like this-Father, is the next strategic focus on Earth?”

“.. The Star Palace’s revenge will come after some time. The nuclear bomb should be able to intimidate the dynasty and the council. The next period of time will be a rare development period for Distant Harbor. The potential enemies outside will be intimidated, and the internal situation will be good. After this period of time, I’ll return to Earth and make arrangements for the development of Earth.” Kant thought for a moment and said,” After all, if we want to increase our strength as soon as possible, it’s better to obtain resources and weapons from Earth based on the time difference.”

“I can go back and hide from Princess Tina and the others?”

“Hey!”

“In that case…” As usual, Horus backstabbed and continued,” Father, have you ever considered expanding the number of Warriors of Destruction and letting them stay in the White Fog World for combat training?”

[PS 1: Upgraded…] Han Zezheng’s son changed his name to Han Guangcheng. Don’t ask, it was a sensitive word that suddenly appeared.
